I don't think I'm that susceptible to becoming addicted to a single game, let alone a MMO. I mean I can get really into a game, play it hardcore for hours at a time, but that hardcore playing usually causes a burnout on the game I'm playing. If I'm playing a game to the point where it would be considered an addiction, then next week I'll probably have moved on and be playing something different.
Usually the only games that I actually continue playing in the long term are those that play almost a casual amount of, for example the only reason I'm still playing WoT regularly is that I only ever play a few battles at a time, surpassing a half-dozen battles in a day is pretty rare for me.
MMO wise I played WoW for a few months a couple times years ago but in the end I always end up hitting a brick wall where progression is a pain in the ass and I just end up saying **** it and stop playing. Eve kept me a long time but the major keeper for me was the people I was playing with, if I was flying solo I probably would of quit long before I did.
